The Reluctant Tutor

by Paula Hampton

He Was Her Last Hope
Kate was determined to succeed in a man's world. After years of study, she had finally found a man willing to apprentice her as an architect. But when she arrived in New York City, she never expected Mr. Gabe Murray to be so handsome -- and so exasperating!

She Was Nothing But A Nuisance
Gabe Murray was not going to help some career-minded miss, no matter what his late father had promised her. He had no time for distractions -- especially not one with Kate's lustrous red hair and sparkling emerald eyes.

This was an interesting book. It was set in 1899 New York, which is not as common. And it revolved around a female architect and her tutor. I really liked it. An enjoyable read.

Kinda trashy romance novel I read while at my Grandma's house. A nice pallette cleanser.

[Aline Damasceno]

A história é daquelas bem clichê: mocinho que foi traído pela ex-noiva passando a demonizar todas as mulheres por isso, sendo vítima da própria amargura e do desejo de vingança, bem como as omissões que levam a uma série de desentendimentos que poderiam ter sido resolvido facilmente. Porém, a história é bem envolvente e gostosinha de se ler. Gostei bastante da perseverança da mocinha em se tornar uma arquiteta respeitada, apesar das barreiras de seu tempo. Acho que torci a cada página pelo sucesso dela. Só faltou um epílogo para a história ser 5 estrelas.
